The power over you.

What is the most powerful or important person in your life? Well personally my mother holds the power in my life. When i'm in trouble or need help , shes there. Even when i did something terrible she gives me a punishment but she always try to understand to the best of her ability. The person that has power in your life might help you with making the right choice like my mom does. For example, she influences me to do my best and to never give up or let someone or something come between me and my dreams. Power doesn't always mean have control over you, it means someone that influences you, supports you, but still has some say over what your choices are. They help you when you need it and they never leave you sitting there. The power person in your life might be a boyfriend/girlfriend, a close friend, a family member. Anyone can be a power or influence to someone. Mine just happens to be my mom, you always know that they are going to love you even when you go through the worst of times. I know that without my mom's power , influence, and help then i wouldn't be the person that i am today.

Drug Abuse.

According to The Federal Government's Household Survey on Drug Abuse, 30 to 40 million people in the United States have used illegal drugs in the past year. Addiction is a painful process, mentally and physically. In the near future, hopefully these numbers will decrees dramatically. While some people think that drugs are used because the way that they make you feel, But the main reason is that they are addicted.

Some possible reasons why people use drugs are simple. First of all, not everyone handles pressure the same. For some people it’s really easy but for others its very difficult when they are being pressured. The pressure may depend on what their childhood was like. Some kids grow up around drugs and are near them every day, but for some they don’t even know what drugs are till they start to grow up. Pressure is not the only reason that people use drugs, there are many reasons why they do. For example, some people don’t know how to handle depression, this may have them turn to drugs. Most people that have depression abuse or use a drug to help them get over what may have happened. For them it can relieve stress/pain and make it easier on them. Other wise there are many different options on why people use drugs.

I believe that addiction is the main cause because it makes your body want more. For example, physical addiction tells your body that it needs more, that your body really needs it and is absolutely dependable on it. But you can’t forget about mental addiction either. Mental addiction means that your mind tells you that you need more, but your body doesn’t necessarily need the drug. People that have mental addiction usually progress to physical addiction. Mental and Physical addictions are ones that your body and mind depend on.

From the millions of people using drugs, it can lead to many pain full lives and can also ruin them. Hopefully in the future the numbers can lower, and the number of people not using drugs can increase. Overall, everyone that use and/or abuse drugs are increasing their risk of getting health issues, having a greater chance of ruining things that are good for them, and also making more bad choices. Some people will adventually relieze if they are making a bad choice for themselves or not. In till that time comes, we have to point out what effects and changes come with drug abuse and use.
